One of the most oppressive cases of the
increase of rates is in the case of Messrs.
Harrison & Dickson. the well.known
dealers in wooden.ware on Los Angeles
street. This firm was importing baskets
and clothes.pins from the valley of the
Mississippi at seventy cents per 100
pounds. The new rate on baskets is
only $l4.ll per 100 pounds, and on
clothes.pins the freight is about five
times what the pins are worth. Of
course this shuts their trade, unless the
law Is suspended. The San Franciscsns
can ship baskets direct by sea from
Germany, while the American basket
maker loses his California trade and
shuts up shop. The dealers and home
manufacturer are crushed by the law :.
They want the law repealed soon as
possible.
AS to stoves for rich and poor. Mr..
Julius L. Vierick, the wholesale dealer
in stoves, ranges and copper domestic
furniture, states that the price of stoves
apiece. This will be a hardship, indeed,
to persons of limited means. He wants
the law repealed.
Newell Matthews, dealer in agricultu.
raj implements and hardware, states
that the old rate of freight on barbed
wire was fifty cents per 100; now, 50. 45
per 100. On lumber wagons the old rate
was seventy cents per 100; new rate,
$2.45 per 100. This makes tax Of
about $24 on every wagon. His GUS
toners will stop purchasing wagons un-
less the law is repealed or suspended.

OOM UA0IGO 1AAAe
A brief compendium of the new rates
and the old between Los Angeles and
New York and Chicago will be found in
the table below. 1t will be seen that the
increase is entirely against Los Angeles.
The following California goods going
east: canned salmon and fruits, brandy,
wine. dried fruit. green fruit, dry hides,
honey, hops, leather, lumber, mustard
seed, raisins, sealskins, wool, barley,
beans, borax, coffee, petroleum, sugar,
tea and vegetables are raised from 25 to
300 per cent, which almost shuts us off
from sending our products eastward,
where they are needed and have been
going for several years. The increased
expense, of course, comes out of the con
sumers, and reveals q colossal blunder
in craftsmanship, where the representa-
tives of the people have made law that
instead of taxing the railways have taxed
every consumer of California products
for the support of the railways. This
ambition to reform has overleaped itself
and landed on the wrong side. Follow
ing are the cas- bound rates, both new
and old:

A Goose story.

her nest down under one corner of
the mill, and pcculiarity OF her
daily product is that instead Of an
egg a quart bottle is found, filed
and labelled "sperutS," with the
name OF the party for whom Il il
intended written on the wrapper.
The above, we are informed. Is no
canard, but an entire fact. Such
goose would no doubt be very
profitable and prove quite an a4
vantage TO that dry village. Now

Ncatncss i'm Girls. :

Neatness is good thing for a
girl and if she does not learn il
when she is young she never will.
1t takesa great deal more ncatness
to make a girl look well than it
does to make boy look passable.
Not because boy is better looking
than a girl, but his clothes are of a
different sort-not so many colors
IN them; and people don't expect
a boy to look as girl. a girl that
is not neatly dressed is called a
sloven, and no one likes to look AT
her. Her face may be pretty and
her eyes bright, but if there is a
spot on her cheek, and her fingers
ends are stained with ink, and her
shoes are not laced and her apron is
dirty, and her collar is unbuttoned
or her skirt torn, she cannot be liked.
Learn to be neat, and when you
have learned it, il will take care of
itself-Bdptist Weekly.
